Automated technology frequently contains inherent biases.

The use of algorithms for moderation creates a clear risk that the screening systems will disproportionately block content relating to or posted by minority ethnic or religious groups.

Decisions on illegality won't be made by the courts, but by private providers with broad discretion.

Vast amounts of content are posted every day, so picking out 'illegal' content will be done by faulty algorithms.

Civil society groups say the use of sensitive metrics is exacerbating discrimination in policing.

See for yourself with this predictive policing tool from Fair Trials.

UK #Police have algorithms analysing huge amounts of information, using discriminatory factors like ‘cramped houses’ and ‘jobs with high turnover’ to predict someone's likelihood to commit a crime.

Big sigh. So many stories out there like this. Check out #AlgorithmicJusticeLeague and #CodedBias for their work. We need more accountability.

Your personal data is used to profile you, making it easier for biased algorithms to decide over job applications, loans, housing and more. Data discrimination has real consequences for marginalised groups the most. We ask councils to fight this practice. #DataDiscrimination #DataProtection #GDPR #CodedBias

Los algoritmos reflejan el pasado, el más oscuro.
Si las máquinas aprenden automáticamente con estos datos escritos por el poder del señor blanco siliconniano, lo que tenemos es una reproducción a enorme escala de este sistema injusto y cruel. “Sabemos que la gente puede ser injusta, pero creemos que los algoritmos no, y ahí está el problema”
🤔 ¿Es posible una #FeministAI ?

watched #CodedBias about Joy #Buolamwini's discovery of #racial #facialrecognition #algorithms https://g.co/kgs/jtQHZW #algorithmicDetermination

Also just watched #CodedBias on Netflix yesterday. Pretty scary use of AI/facial recognition. 😱

I’m 30 minutes into #CodedBias (the #Netflix #documentary on #AI). Everything they are saying is against capitalism and certain politics, and very little is actually about AI.
They somehow attribute so many bad things happening around the world to the use of AI, saying that AI is just replicating the past. But I feel like if the past taught us anything it’s that bad things happened way before modern technology…
Why blame AI, which can do as much good as it can do bad?

Well put by @abebab:

"Although the choices of those with privilege have created these systems, for some reason it seems to be the job of the marginalized to “fix” them. In response to ChatGPT’s racist and misogynist output, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman appealed to the community of users to help improve the model."

The age-verification system being tested by Instagram is 'less accurate for female faces and people with darker skin.' For under-24s 'its estimates can be off by up to 2.5 years.'

The #OnlineSafetyBill permits any tech to check your age. From social media to search engines, what you can access online will be decided by biased AI running guesstimates.

Bad law creates injustice. #CodedBias
